#BRINGBACK64! (64 Game Resurrection Petition)

Do you want 64 Player Games to return?

If your answer is “Yes, please!” then look no further and add your name and comment to this thread.
Do not give up, my fellow Overlords. We are rulers and rivals for entire pieces of the Cosmos itself!
Do not falter in such a paltry task as this! Spread the word into all NP-related mediums!
Do not relent. Bring back 64!

If Jay has not responded within due time and enough names are present, then I or some other
cutthroat will send him a PM with a list of names and some of their more polished (or threatening
(cough) comments! And I encourage anyone else who has tentacles groping deeper into IHG to
deliver this message and possibly drag out our missing Dev to face the growing mob and maybe
their hordes. You are encouraged to bring your fleets. ALL of them.

I would love to get at least 100 names on this list. (who thinks we can get at least 150? Too high?
I would imagine we once could have reached 200 in more active years)

Best regards, Smulm

EDIT by @xjhdexter . Here is a reminder of what Three neighbors map 64D looked like.

Jay used a setting of 9.92 LY between HW. The games took about a month to complete.

Don’t listen to him! He created a space strategy game based on deception! He lies! Lies! I still recall word about implementing the old Triton avatars. Still waiting on them, too.

Do not relent, fellow Overlords!

Void Bastards? What is that?

Void Bastards is your new favourite game! Wish-list on Steam Now!

Interesting. But I still prefer to lead countless legions through galaxies. 64 player galaxies, to be precise. :relieved:

Hey, If we did bring back the 64 player games, how would you feel if they were Proteus instead of NP?

I might also need to move the AI off the server and into the browser.

I have been thinking about getting some students at the local university help me out with some NP work. They will even get course credit for it!

Is it possible for gamers to hack the AI ? Is it preventable ? Maybe using asm.js or something ?

I would like to have seen Three neighbors map 64E in NP2 Triton normal space.

How would you add random NP3 Proteus wormholes on a fair map like that ? Would the map become unfair ?

Jay, please do not post ideas for NP Proteus on this thread, please. The topic is for NP2 64s. I do not play Proteus at all and never intend to. Frankly, it is nothing more than a variant of NP, and not at all as good or balanced as NP2.

I don’t mind if it’s proteus or not, I just want 64p games!

What’s less balanced about Proteus? Whats not as good?

Don’t listen to him.
He just said he never plays it and never intends to.
Proteus is definitely better balanced and way more fun.
64 player games were great, a proteus 64 player game would be better.

I don’t play it because I hate it. It’s trolls like you that make me hate posting on social media.
